1) I only found out about them a few weeks ago. I'd heard the name but never really listened to them. I didn't really like that kind of music then but then I heard Welcome to the Black Parade.. I searched the internet to find out who it was and I found the video and I was like wow!

2) I guess I answered that in question one..

3) Not really.. if they are still coming out with good songs, then it doesnt really change anything. They deserve all the success they get!

1.I first knew about them when my best friend mistook Gerard for Jack Black a few years back(long black hair period), I wasn't really into that kind of music then, I used to listen to mandopop alot, then I fell in love with them recently after listening to Welcome To The Black Parade, and their other songs too.

2.My brother and I sat on the couch and and stared wide-eyed at their video, then I listened to him read out their wikipedia page.

3.I can't get mad at them, so long as they continue making music and staying true to their messages in their songs.

The first time I saw Helena on tv with my mom. We were like wow that's hott. For my b-day i got an ipod and the first song i put on it was Helena .
The real time was when my "luver" (LOL) put on Demolition Lovers on and we made out to the song and I discovered that I loved my luver till death.
besides MCR.

My friend Emily told me to listen to them (back when they had the original I'm Not Okay video). I listenedto/watched it, but didn't love it. Then AOL Music had an advertisement saying how great Helena was a couple weeks later... so I watched it. And fell. Hard.

1.my ex-best friend introduced me to them
2. i could not believe i actually liked this 'heavy music' ( i was a green day, good charlotte, simple plan fan back then..)
3. it sometimes bug me, but only in the way that people who used to laugh at my taste in music now come up to me and tell me how great MCR is, and who just understand anything about this band. but that's not the bands fault, and i'm happy for them that their hard work is paying off.plus MCR stays true to us, so in my opinion they havent sold out or anything..

1. The first time i heard them was on this CD with loads of artists and they were on it with the song Helena.
2. I loved the song but i got really depressed shortly after hearing it (not because of it though!) and the song Helena was the only music i would listen to, wherever i went i was listening to that song and it would the only thing i heard.
3. I am not depressed anymore (well, not as i know, lol) and i am kinda happy about them going into the mainstream, i wouldn't of gone back to listening to them (as i had only heard the song Helena and after i was not depressed i didn't really listen to it) so without everyone going on about them i wouldn't of started listening to them again.
